This episode presents a clear, data-backed breathing protocol designed to raise low HRV and strengthen stress resilience—using a method so simple it can be anchored to everyday transitions. We break down why HRV is a powerful reflection of nervous system adaptability and how slow, structured breathing can shift your physiology toward calm, recovery, and improved autonomic balance.

You’ll learn why six breaths per minute represents the body’s resonance frequency, the cadence that maximizes vagal tone and stabilizes heart–lung coupling. We walk through a practical, chime-guided setup, including an eyes-closed posture and a light counting loop to reduce mind-wandering and deepen focus. The protocol includes 5-, 10-, and 20-minute dosing options, with research and user data showing the strongest dose–response benefits at the 20-minute mark.

We also explain how pairing this breathing technique with brief exertion—like a short walk or light movement—can accelerate recovery and raise HRV faster. Finally, we share how anchoring the practice to daily transitions (waking, commuting, post-work, bedtime) can lock in consistency and long-term results.
